J ohn Moult remembers the time he was floored by an algorithm. Moult, one of the organizers of the Critical Assessment of Protein Structure Prediction (CASP) competitions and a computational biologist ...
The marriage of data, new algorithms, and biology is leading to innovative engineering of biological processes and the development of new healthcare treatments and diagnostic products and services. At ...
Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks” during cell division. Instead of acting like a motor, it works more like ...
Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...
Scientists call this speck LUCA — the Last Universal Common Ancestor. Since the concept of LUCA first emerged, it has ...
This past year, we explored a lot of new cell biology research—from cancer to plants to microbes, and more! It’s hard to believe what can fit in a year. Yet as we say goodbye to 2025, we want to take ...
When a cell divides, it performs a feat of microscopic choreography—duplicating its DNA and depositing it into two new cells.
Regents Review is available to stream on pbs.org and the free PBS App, available on iPhone, Apple TV, Android TV, Android smartphones, Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Fire Tablet, Roku, Samsung Smart TV, and ...
The human cell is a miserable thing to study. Tens of trillions of them exist in the body, forming an enormous and intricate network that governs every disease and metabolic process. Each cell in that ...
